self-paced TUTORINg program

 

 

Greetings Students and Friends!

Starting this summer, students will be offered the opportunity to study conversational Hebrew at their own pace using the Ulpan Or digital curriculum w/tutoring support from Morah Makedah.  If you are passionate about learning Hebrew and advancing towards fluency but a traditional weekly class time doesn’t work for you, then the new Self-paced Tutoring Program may be the right solution for you for this academic school year.  

Details below.

Small Group Classes
